Review of Free Guy (2021) by Miccael — 17 Aug 2021
Let me start by saying how fun this movie is. It is really IS fun. Does not mean it's perfect. In fact, it breaks logic of the premise several times. Love story is cliche, pacing is not well either. But most jokes land, an average gamer would know almost all references here. This is movie for us, but then for non-gamer people this would not work (for example Ready Player One did work and people like my old parents understood it at least and could follow).
The "YouTubers and streamers" part was nice but in my opinion was a bit too much, just show once, we are not here for Ninja's commentary on the movie. By far the best cameos are towards the end. And "final boss" scene was the most fun too. 3.5/5 is fair I think. And I feel it would be enjoyable as well on second viewing later.
